Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK Muslima arrested at airport upon her return from the Islamic State

Dec 31, 2014 12:03 pm By Robert Spencer

And so the appalling absurdity that is contemporary Britain continues. A Muslim woman from London goes to Syria to join the Islamic State. Upon her return, she is arrested “on suspicion of preparing for acts of terrorism” — preparing for those acts, mind you, in an entity that calls itself “the Islamic State.” Yet the […]

Islamic State releases guide for how to raise jihadi children

Dec 31, 2014 11:48 am By Robert Spencer

“No matter what happens in Iraq and Syria in the near future, the next generation – the children of Baghdadi and grandchildren of bin Laden – have already been brainwashed to hate the West and to strive for jihad and martyrdom.” Not to worry — this has nothing whatsoever to do with Islam. “How to […]

Germany: Man stabbed in head and back for shouting “Merry Christmas” in Muslim-dominated area

Dec 31, 2014 11:10 am By Nicolai Sennels

Recently a Danish couple was slashed in the face with iron chains by Muslims on their way home on Christmas Eve. The Christmas terror attack below happened in Cologne Ehrenfeld, a Muslim-dominated area which recently got its own mega-mosque, Central Mosque Cologne. Shouting “Merry Christmas” can be fatal in certain areas of Europe. Translated from […]

Nigeria: Islamic jihadis raid village, burn homes, murder at least 15 people

Dec 31, 2014 10:58 am By Robert Spencer

Boko Haram’s real name is the Congregation of the People of the Sunnah for Dawah and Jihad. Not that this has anything to do with Islam. Will the Islamophobia never end? “15 killed in Boko Haram raid, Nigerian villagers say,” by Aminu Abubakr, CNN, December 31, 2014 (thanks to Billy): Kano, Nigeria (CNN) — At […]

Former Mufti of Egypt Ali Gomaa: Jews plant “Gharqad” trees to hide from Muslims on Judgment Day

Dec 31, 2014 10:40 am By Robert Spencer

Back in 2007, I debated Dinesh d’Souza at CPAC and on a few radio shows on the thesis of his book, The Enemy At Home, which claimed that jihad terrorism was a reaction to the corruption of American pop culture, and recommended that U.S. conservatives ally with “conservative Muslims” on shared moral grounds. During these […]

Yemen: Jihad suicide bomber murders 33 celebrating Muhammad’s birthday

Dec 31, 2014 10:13 am By Robert Spencer

What fitter way could there be to celebrate the birthday of Muhammad? After all, Islam holds that it was to him that Allah gave the momentous guarantee: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah , so they […]

Obama releases five more Gitmo detainees

Dec 31, 2014 9:59 am By Robert Spencer

It’s OK. One of them is not a “veteran terrorist”; he’s just “a chef who was trying to find a better life.” “What’s good in this place?” “Try the IED’s, sir. They’re to die for.” “Five Guantanamo prisoners held for a dozen years are released and resettled in Kazakhstan,” by Dan Bloom, Daily Mail, December […]

Raymond Ibrahim: Muslim Authorities Say Girls Can Be Married “Even If They Are In The Cradle”

Dec 31, 2014 9:31 am By Raymond Ibrahim

[Published by VIE via RaymondIbrahim.com] Muslim attempts at “reformation” continue to be limited to words not actions.  A few days ago, efforts to set a minimum age for marriage in Saudi Arabia “received a blow after the Grand Mufti said there was nothing wrong with girls below 15 getting married.” Two years earlier, the justice […]

Iran raids house church on Christmas, arrests nine Christians

Dec 31, 2014 6:03 am By Robert Spencer

“In a message on Wednesday, December 25, on the occasion of Christmas, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, called the clerical regime masking itself by Islam as the most ruthless enemy of Christ and Mohammad…They are henchmen that execute and torture people for their religious beliefs, especially for following the true message of […]

Islamic State glorifies Sydney siege jihadi Man Haron Monis

Dec 31, 2014 5:24 am By Robert Spencer

Western authorities and the media establishment have hastened to assure us that Man Haron Monis was simply mentally ill, and that’s why he took hostages in the Lindt Chocolat Cafe and had some of them hold the black flag of jihad to the window. The Islamic State, however, has a different view. “Sydney siege gunman […]

Living on Mars is un-Islamic, and five other weird fatwas from 2014

Dec 30, 2014 3:39 pm By Robert Spencer

This post could be entitled The Wacky Side of Sharia were it not for the unaccountable human suffering caused by #2 (and the beliefs that it echoed and reaffirmed) in the Islamic State, as well as in Nigeria. “Six weirdest fatwas of 2014,” Egypt Independent, December 30, 2014: “God’s agents” — that was the term […]

UK: Neighbor says people at house raided by counter-terror police “go to the mosque every Friday”

Dec 30, 2014 3:24 pm By Robert Spencer

“They go to the mosque every Friday.” What? But David Cameron has told the UK’s Muslims that jihad terrorism has nothing to do with Islam. How could they have misunderstood the teachings of that renowned imam? And why didn’t the vast majority of peaceful Muslims in the Bedford mosque rise up against these jihad terror […]

Islamic State jihadi says he felt joyous when killing people because “I was killing infidels”

Dec 30, 2014 2:39 pm By Robert Spencer

“Anghel said the militants go through a very intensive brainwashing process of Shariah, the Islamic law, and they come out on the other side truly believing that God wants them to kill infidels.” Now where could they have gotten such a crazy, Islamophobic idea? Could it be from Qur’an passages like these? 2:191-193: “And slay […]

Pakistan’s answer to terrorism: show only good news at bedtime

Dec 30, 2014 12:15 pm By Robert Spencer

It’s much the same in the Western media. The news must be happy, at least when it comes to the global jihad and Islam. Jihad activity is downplayed, ignored, denied, or ascribed to “militants” or “youths,” while the media focus is on “backlash” against innocent Muslims. Those who call attention to the nature and magnitude […]

Sharia UK: 19-year-old arrested for video showing him burning Qur’an

Dec 30, 2014 11:29 am By Robert Spencer

Would this teenager have been arrested for burning the Bible? Of course not. But the Cameron government is desperate to appease Islamic supremacists — apparently even to the point of adopting Sharia laws governing the treatment of the Qur’an. I am not in favor of burning any book, but I am also in favor of […]

Pakistani officials enraged over “Homeland” portrayal of their country as “ugly, ignorant, terror-plagued ‘hellhole'”

Dec 30, 2014 11:02 am By Robert Spencer

“‘Repeated insinuations that an intelligence agency of Pakistan is complicit in protecting the terrorists at the expense of innocent Pakistani civilians is not only absurd but also an insult to the ultimate sacrifices of the thousands of Pakistani security personnel in the war against terrorism,’ a source said.” If the shoe fits: Pakistan’s ISI spy […]

Russia: Two Muslims imprisoned for jihad mass murder plot against Moscow supermarket

Dec 30, 2014 10:43 am By Robert Spencer

Imagine what a jihad bomb in a crowded supermarket would have done to “strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah” (Qur’an 8:60). “Two sentenced to prison for plotting terrorist attack on Moscow supermarket,” Tass, December 25, 2014: MOSCOW, December 25. /TASS/.

Is Major General Nagata subtly questioning Obama’s refusal to acknowledge the reality of jihad terror?

Dec 30, 2014 10:07 am By Robert Spencer

There is good reason to think so, and it would be heartening to think that there is still at least one high-level official who sees the reality of the situation and is unwilling to close his eyes to it. More on this story. “Obama’s See-No-Islam Policy Forces Military Rethink,” by Neil Munro, Daily Caller, December […]

Jordan: Santa Claus arrested for “evangelizing and inciting sectarianism”

Dec 30, 2014 8:45 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Raymond Ibrahim: Only Muslim Schoolchildren Lives Matter?

Dec 30, 2014 8:41 am By Raymond Ibrahim

[Via FrontPage Magazine] Earlier we looked at “how Western mainstream media enable Islamic terrorism,” specifically by employing an arsenal of semantic games, key phrases, convenient omissions, and moral relativism to portray such violence as a product of anything and everything—political and historical grievances, “Islamophobia,” individual insanity, poverty and ignorance, territorial disputes—not Islam. Another strategy that […]
